What kind of eyes are considered beautiful? Different ethnic groups have different aesthetic standards. It is generally accepted that large, bright eyes with slender, clear, crystal clear corners are beautiful; tiny, bloated, droopy eyes are not. Blepharoplasty is cosmetic eyelid surgery for patients with single lids or loose, bloated upper eyelid skin. 1. What is the normal size of the eye fissure? The eyelid fissure is the gap between the upper and lower eyelids, which is commonly referred to as the eye slit. The length of the normal eyelid fissure should be equal to one-fifth of the width of the face, averaging 30-34mm in adults; the width of the normal eyelid fissure, or the upper and lower diameter of the fissure, averages 10-12mm in adults, and it is normal for the upper eyelid to cover the cornea by about 1-2mm. Since ancient times, China has had the rule of “horizontal three” and “vertical five”. The horizontal three refers to the three parts from the hairline to the eyebrow, from the eyebrow to the bottom of the nose and from the bottom of the nose to the lower edge of the chin prominence. The vertical five refers to the vertical five parts from the auricle to the external canthus, from the external canthus to the internal canthus, from the internal canthus to the contralateral internal canthus, from the contralateral internal canthus to the external canthus and from the external canthus to the auricle. It should be noted that even if the length and width of the eye fissure are within the normal range mentioned above, it is still not necessarily a normal eye fissure, and it depends on whether it is in harmony with other organs such as the ear, nose, mouth, and eyebrows. 2. Who is or is not suitable for cosmetic blepharoplasty? Patients who are healthy, mentally normal, and actively request surgery for single lid or upper eyelid skin laxity and bloating are suitable for cosmetic blepharoplasty. Patients with local inflammation of the eyelid, eye disease, paralysis of the eye muscles, protruding eyeballs, and unrealistic requirements are not suitable for cosmetic blepharoplasty treatment. 3. What are the surgical methods of blepharoplasty? The procedure can be divided into two methods: suture and incision. The suture method. This method involves suturing the dermis of the skin to the lid or levator tendon membrane, or directly ligating the skin and conjunctiva at the upper edge of the lid, relying on the scar adhesions created by the surgical trauma. This method is suitable for patients with thin upper lid skin and younger patients. The incision method. This method involves cutting the skin at the appropriate location on the upper lid, removing some of the orbicularis muscle or orbital fat, and suturing the skin incision to the lid or levator tendon membrane. This method is suitable for patients of any age, and is particularly suitable for older patients with lax and bloated upper lid skin. 4. How do I care for my blepharoplasty after surgery? Blepharoplasty can usually be done in an outpatient operating room, and the patient can go home and rest after surgery. 24 hours after surgery, the dressing can be removed from the wound, eye secretions and blood scabs on the incision can be wiped away, and all sutures can be removed from the area 5-7 days after the incisional blepharoplasty. 5. What is the recovery after blepharoplasty? It is normal to have mild bruising or swelling in the eyelid area after blepharoplasty, and the swelling usually begins to subside in 5-8 days, and it takes 2-3 months for the swelling to fully subside.
